Endemites “A. E. Koechert”

an endangered species

Endemites are rare organisms that grow and blossom in a certain limited habitat, which must be carefully protected and preserved. A. E. Köchert are renowned jewellers, founded in 1814 in the heart of Vienna. The stone endemites ("Koechertsche") exclusively grow there. Handcarved and carefully polished these delicate creatures will only survive in the most cultivated of biotopes (Exhibition: Wien Products Collection, Photos: Köchert)
